As Im contemplating my career options as I apply to graduate schools, I would like to know what others would advice for what my career interests are.
I love the field of medical genetics, but Im not enthusiastic of wanting to go through medical school and go into major debt to make a low salary as a clinical geneticist. Thus, I have been researching my other options.
I will be applying for a masters in medical genetics. So I will be working as an allied health care professional in a clinic. I would like to teach a human genetics course in graduate school or undergraduate school. So my hope is that I can become an adjunct with a local university teaching one human genetics course. I would also like to make a contract as an adjunct teaching a human genetics course online so I can reach out to more people.
But I want more career options.
So Im thinking about getting a certificate in disability ethics or a law degree (online through NYU) in disability ethics to go with my masters in medical genetics. Do you think I would be able to work with lawyers in making new policies for people who have disabilities?
I would also like to get a masters in bioethics. I want to get a masters in bioethics because I would like to either teach a bioethics course or be a member of an ethics committee at the clinic I would work for.
I would also like to get a PhD in Health education because I would love to travel around the country giving talks about health care issues and health topics. Thus, I would want to give talks about some gene mutation that leads to a disorder and how clinical treatment is affected by the gene mutation.
In general, I would work as a genetic counselor, work with lawyers on disability laws, be on an ethics committee, and travel giving talks on health care topics. Is this to much to handle?
I would like your input as to what your thoughts would be.
